Rough Wood Furniture

The old and natural beauty of furniture has always fascinated me, but who isn’t? I have noticed these in supplies at S.I. Jars and Antiques (217 Roosevelt Avenue, Quezon City) as well as used at Cafe Ria (Plaza Maestro Vigan), Saq’s Great Clippers (2nd Floor, Villasis Public Market, Pangasinan) and at Escape Internet Cafe and Snack Bar (besides Lyceum-Urdaneta, McArthus Highway).

It must be the cool effect wood exudes, or the sturdy dependable feeling when using these.

But then, it must be my ancestral influence as I grew up in my grandmother’s care. She has always kept all her furniture in top condition.

Rozela’s Home Decor

Home decorating in the absence of commercial or even independent designers is such a drag. But more so with a very tight budget. So when it comes to practical dressing up of the house, curtains and bedsheets as well as comfy pillows may only be trusted with Bulacan-made Rozela’s Home Decor. Located at the 3rd floor of Magic Mall Urdaneta, their practically prized but designer type curtains have a variety of color combinations and themes, with casual everyday as well as classic designs one can choose from. Besides, there are available pillows and cases as well as matching bedsheets you are assured won’t run on the third washing, unlike the types you’d find anywhere else.

What’s really great about Rozela’s is also the quality of sewing and prize. I guess they also accept made-to-order. That would definitely be the catch.

Hardware

Although it is very convenient to shop at DIY (along Alexander Street in Magic Mall) with their ready-to-asist staff and wide array of product choices from glue guns to car accessories and ubiquitous Orocan and other brand plastic cabinets and chairs, there are other choices for hardware shopping, in traditional format. There’s Betty’s Mini Mart along Aruego Street that also provide a wide range of other house items like bed foams and kitchen wares, school and sewing supplies, vynil mats, upholstery and curtain fablics. But Paz Ang general merchandize just along the entry of Alexander Street from Maharlika highway provide the most competitive prices for most hard ware needs, from hammers to antennaes…

Furnitures

When it comes to furniture shopping, there are a lot of choices from monoblocs to genuine narra from Isabela. But I have a limited post here now since I can only post about real-experience shopping. As in Red Arc Furniture Center. The display area and bodega are in the same location along Maharlika highway in Nancayasan near the Urdaneta arch. They have a wide variety of bed and living area furnitures as they provide genuine Uratex foam. the fiendly manager is a huge plus. There’s also Kabayan Warehouse also along the highway with a fleamarket style of products. Although a lot of other furniture shops could be found near side streets of Urdaneta public market.
